Hi, and thanks for checking out my project.
1) make fails when it can't find help2man. it
then complains (twice)
file2jack isn't found either (an ls after the fact shows it is):
Well, help2man is listed as a build dependency, and I don't think it's
proper style to verify dependencies in the makefile. In ./configure,
yes -- but I'm not using one.
Ok, I probably should have read them :-)
2) floating
point exception when command issued without options:
That, indeed, is not nice. It happened because I left the arg parsing
routine open till the last moment. Fixed in git.
Know the feeling :-)
To tell the whole story, I was hoping eventually to
make both
file2jack and jacktransportloop infrastructure-apps that could be
controlled via stdin. So file2jack could start with nothing, and
accept commands to add/remove files to the transport timeline.
Sounds interesting.
Plus there would be a tkJackTransport app that
actually scrolls the
timeline (unlike gjacktransport, which is unhelpful when the transport
overshoots the display limit) and has a loop checkbox and two time
entries. I couldn't fit this in the first release. If anybody wants to
help...
But otherwise -- did it work for you when you passed proper args?
Yes it worked.
Admittedly, I didn't quite get it at first because I'd only really
skimmed the description. I was mostly wanting to look at the code as
I'm interested in trying to get a better grasp how data is passed
between threads when using JACK. I find the code somewhat difficult to
follow.
Thanks,
James
